delCapo only really met him for one day (even though we exchanged emails and read each other’s writings)….. when he took care of us (Zorro, Haris and SKY) the first day we arrived in Kuching… leading up to the Batang Ai by elections nomination day.

Thanks to him we made new friends that day… and put faces to names of our fellow blogtivists from Sarawak.

Nice chap…. I always address him as Mr Chan.

May your soul Write In Peace, Mr Chan…. Tony Thien will be missed by the readers.

Joining us for lunch the first instant we reached kuching

hosting a dinner for us to meet some of the prominent Sarawak Bloggers

I was supposed to join this meeting in Kuching to welcome KL/WM bloggers the day the pix were taken but didn’t make it.

CHAI’s, as we knew him, life as a journalist, spanned the breadth of the independent Malaysia. It was his first and only profession, having started as a cub reporter with the Sarawak Tribune, sometimes in 1966 or 1967. He wrote Malaysia as it got started and lived and wrote Change as things got awry in Sarawak. He was a writer of his times. He lived and wrote Sarawak-Malaysia.

May he now find the repose deserving of a Malaysian writer we can remember in esteem.
